It’s exciting to learn that one of San Antonio’s own – Noel Wells – a 25-year-old University of Texas graduate, who’s described in bios as hailing from San Antonio, has joined the “Saturday Night Live” cast.

Wells, a performer with the Upright Citizens Brigade, the improv troupe co-founded by Amy Poehler, is the only new woman to join the late-night sketch show as it gears up to begin its 39th season Sept. 28 on NBC with guest host Tina Fey and musical guest Arcade Fire. Other new featured players announced Monday include Beck Bennett, John Milhiser, Kyle Mooney, Mike O’Brien and Brooks Wheelan.

Before she moved to Los Angeles, the 2010 UT graduate performed at Austin’s legendary sketch comedy venue Esther’s Follies.

According to NBC, Wells has appeared in numerous online comedy videos for Funny or Die, CollegeHumor and Cracked.com. Her self-produced sketch and parody videos have been viewed more than 12 million times on YouTube.

A dead ringer for Zooey Deschanel, her impressions of the “New Girl” star have drawn critical acclaim. Find them on her Web series, “Hey! I’m Zooey Deschanel.” Episode One can be seen here.

As an actress, she has been featured in numerous ad campaigns and starred in the indie film “Forev,” which premiered at the LA Film Fest (see Wells in photo above) and is currently making the rounds at festivals.
